Silent Saturday: Tech-Free Retreat
These half-day retreats — gentle, peaceful meditations, unplugged from the digital world — are super helpful in our modern age, and we warmly invite you to take advantage of them. You will be introduced to and guided in three 45-minute meditation sessions, focused on breathing meditation, pacifying our busy thoughts, and the peaceful clarity of our own mind. In between sessions feel free to hang out and relax — read one of our library books, sit quietly, drink tea or coffee, or take some time to stroll around the local area. Treat yourself to a well earned and much needed break, and learn some practical skills for keeping this peace going back at home and at work. Beginners or more experienced meditators, everyone is welcome to join us.

Guru Yoga & Mandala Offering Retreat
Guru Yoga and Mandala offering retreat combines two of the four great preliminary guides that we need to practise if we want to gain mahamudra realisations — the quick path to enlightenment. We all wish for spiritual realisations, but these depend upon creating certain inner conditions such as purifying negativity, accumulating merit, and receiving blessings. In this retreat we focus on the preliminary practices of accumulating merit and receiving blessings. Making mandala offerings is the gateway to accumulating the collection of merit, and Guru yoga is the gateway to receiving blessings. The practice is accomplished within the sadhana Offering to the Spiritual Guide.
